Chris, you coming up for the Cat National ??
Normally I'd agree, but with these two tracks being 650 miles apart from each other (probably the biggest distance b/t two tracks in the Division) seems like the best you could hope for as far as not...
Sorry to see this get canceled IF that happens. The date for me is a big problem, just too early in the season to risk towing thru the Midwest with dodgy weather.
A move to Memorial Day weekend...
Welcome to racing, you'll never get it out of your blood so good for you on realizing this and taking the plunge !!!
Biggest thing IMO is making sure your car is reliable at this point. Nothing...
Now THAT sounds like the voice of experience !!! :cool: Have a great holiday Chris !
First and final bump, auction ends this Sunday, Dec. 7th @ 9:30 PM Eastern.
Listing for my dad on eBay, ID number: 160300521524
Yep, when the green waves it's time to go. Also, if you are further back and can't see the flag itself, watch when the corner workers drop the double yellow - then it's on !!:eclipsee_steering:
Hell, unless they took pictures that are now stapled in your logbook, take it to the next event and say "Look, I fixed it".:cool:
Thanks Ryan, I'll use your idea for measurement !!! Figured I'd end up buying 2 or 3 belts and finding which one works best. I think I bought one of the last headers that Walt Puckett made when I...
Does anyone have a part number or source for a belt that would bypass the alternator and just turn the water pump off the crank pulley ?? This is for a 1.8L stock setup on my Golf.
EDIT: Also...
+1 to what Chris said above. I've driven both on a VW and prefer the welded diff. Not as much push as some people will tell you. Point it where you want to go, stomp on the gas and hold on,...
Yep, exactly right Greg. It didn't seem like after SM "went" National that there was much interest in having a regional race combined with a National weekend for the Cat. I've run alot of races in...
Yep the scheduling issues were the big problem. Some hard headed people who were in charge of certain regions were not willing to work together to put together a schedule that would work for the...
Hey Greg,
That's news to me about the spectator vs. non-spectator insurance costs. But I know Tracey is very involved in putting on races, so I will take your info as gospel instead of my numbers...
The insurance excuse just doesn't wash. The added "expense" of having races listed as spectator vs. non-spectator is so small most regions just decided to have them sanctioned as spectator events to...
I'm not knocking increased Club revenues, just saying let's be clear about why there is even talk about making IT into National classes. Personally, I think IT has a great thing going for it the way...
Figure another 200 cars at $300 per, you do the math............
Say what you want (pro or con) about IT having National class status, but understand this is about one thing: money. National office wants your Runoff's entry to add money to the coffers. ...
A little bumpy - sure, but a really fun track to drive. Indy Region does a fantastic job running an event, always a good time. Planning to come down for the July race....
Yeah, let's not talk about road racers having to pay higher entry fees to supplement higher insurance costs due to claims by solo racers. Some of you may not like Matt's delivery style, but read...
This is a common problem with being the first group after lunch. If I'm in that group, I'll take note of when the last group is done, add an hour to that and plan on being at grid at that time. ...
Now to be fair, she was there for 18 years Matt !!! Plus what other job could you get that pays you to take 2 weeks vacation to sunny FL in the winter to attend National races as part of your job ??...
Nope, just taking the high road. Little surprised you :happy204: for somebody who slammed the prod guys when you crew for one, but to each his own.
I too, can do my own thinking.
Dave,
